[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son is in 5th grade and we want to lottery for a MS that is smaller than our IB (Elliot-Hine) while his sister also finishes 5th grade at our ES.  
We plan to move to NW for HS and her MS years.  Any recs of fairly easy to get into charter MS? Was thinking Cap Hill Montessori, Stuart Hobson (I know it's not charter), Two Rivers, Inspired Teaching.  
Any others I should think about? Or any horror stories to stay away from any of those?[/quote]

Stuart-Hobson has taken zero kids through the lottery for 3 years in a row. Not sure how it could possibly qualify as not hard to get into? Even Hardy takes a few kids… I think CHML, 2R and ITDS fit what you’re looking for with the best (ITDS) being the least convenient. I’d definitely try Latins second campus too if you can swing the commute.[/quote]

This is untrue.  We were offered a spot a S-H for this school year (but didn't take it).  We also got into IT and 2R.  I think the only schools we didn't get into for 6th grade were Basis and Latin, and that was no surprise.   Our lottery number was roughly in the top 25-30%, so decent but not spectacular.  [/quote]

Where did you choose to go, if you are ok sharing? [/quote]
